ISIS jihadi who murdered US journalist James Foley looks to be British

Will Theresa May ban this chap from Britain? Or would that be “Islamophobic”? And meanwhile, is anyone looking into where he learned his understanding of Islam, and where this understanding is being spread in Britain? Or would such an inquiry impair “community cohesion”?

“ISIS fighter who executed US journalist looks to be British, Defence Secretary Philip Hammond says,” by Robin de Peyer, London Evening Standard, August 20, 2014 (thanks to Anne Crockett):

The ISIS fighter who beheaded a US photojournalist in a savage act of brutality appears to be British, the Foreign Secretary said today.

Philip Hammond said the horrific video of James Foley being executed by a masked jihadi militant has the hallmarks to suggest it is genuine as he warned of the “cancer” of the Islamic State.

Footage posted online by ISIS terrorists shows the 40-year-old freelance journalist handcuffed and clad in orange robes before being savagely executed by a fighter apparently speaking in a British accent in the desert.

Mr Hammond today acknowledged that the killer appears to speak with a British accent as he issues a chilling “message to America”.

“Certainly at first pass that’s what it looks like and we will obviously want to investigate that further,” he told the BBC.

“We have been saying for a long time that there are a significant number of British nationals in Syria and Iraq operating with extremist organisations.

“That’s one of the reasons why this organisation represents such a direct threat to the UK’s national security.

“Many of these people may seek at some point to return to the UK and they would then pose a direct threat to our domestic security.”

‘Cancer’: Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond condemned the violence (Picture: PA) Mr Hammond accepted that “significant numbers” of British nationals had been involved in the atrocities carried out by ISIS fighters in the Middle East.

“We are very much aware of the threat from foreign nationals operating in Syria and Iraq, that’s not just to the UK it’s to all Western countries and other Arab countries as well.

“This is a poison, a cancer, what’s going on in Iraq and Syria and it risks spreading to other parts of the international community and affecting us all directly.”

He added: “This may come as news to some people but it certainly does not come as news to us.

“We are absolutely aware that there are significant numbers of British nationals involved in terrible crimes, probably in the commission of atrocities, making jihad with IS and other extremist organisations.

“This is something we have been tracking and dealing with for many, many months, I don’t think this video changes anything it just heightens awareness of a situation which is very grave and which we have been working on for many months.”

In the video Mr Foley, who was abducted in Syria 22 months ago, makes a statement during the five-minute video entitled “A message to America” released by the Islamic State Al-Furqan foundation.

James Foley appears clad in orange in a chilling shot from the video moments before he is murdered During the speech he said he wanted to call on family, friends and loved ones to “rise up against my real killers, the US government”.

He added: “For what will happen to me is only the result of their complacency and criminality”.

The statement, during which he is seen to pause and take deep breaths, ended with him saying he wished he could see his family again.

The IS fighter standing next to him is then seen brandishing a knife before accusing America of “aggression towards the Islamic state”.

He said: “You have plotted against us and gone far out of your way to find reasons to interfere in our affairs.

In a chilling threat in which he singles out US president Barack Obama, he says further actions in Iraq by America “will result in the bloodshed of your people”.

After the victim is apparently beheaded, another man, said to be journalist Steven Sotloff, who went missing near the border of Syria and Turkey last year, is shown at the end of the video, with the IS fighter saying his life depends on President Obama’s “next decision”.

Mr Foley’s mother Diane released a statement saying the family “have never been prouder” of him and pleaded with the kidnappers not to kill any other hostages.

“We have never been prouder of our son Jim. He gave his life trying to expose the world to the suffering of the Syrian people.

“We implore the kidnappers to spare the lives of the remaining hostages.

“Like Jim, they are innocents. They have no control over American government policy in Iraq, Syria or anywhere in the world.

“We thank Jim for all the joy he gave us. He was an extraordinary son, brother, journalist and person. Please respect our privacy in the days ahead as we mourn and cherish Jim.”

Even if this piece of Muslim sh*t was born in Britain, he is not British. He is not even a member of the human race.
Now is the perfect opportunity for all the” moderate” “peaceful” Muslims living in Britain to take to the streets and condemn the actions of this piece of Muslim filth.
Don´t these” British” Muslims feel ANY shame for the behaviour and actions of their Muslim brothers.?????

Muslims have no shame, no conscience, no gratitude, no kindness,or any other human values. Period!! They thrive on looting, cheating, deceiving, raping, murdering , and other barbaric “qualities”. Ah, its so gratifying for Muslims to be part of such a gang known as Islam.

The BBC will 1stly invite Ajmal Masroor…who will say that …this person does not speak for Islam…but I do. He will further say that no moderates need march or condemn/speak up as he has spoken on their behalf.

Failing that Asghar Bukhari, Catherine Heseltine will be invited to do the same.

Mind you….better not say any thing about Muhammad SAW …as that will bring the moderates to protest onto the streets of London outside Parliament.

And notice that Rezali Mehil will not denounce this pious butcher herself.

Appalling—but hardly surprising.

Note what she is positing—that “moderates” have no problem with a “British” Muslim beheading a journalist, but that if one dared criticize or even question the bloody “Prophet” of islam, that they would be rioting in the streets.

Funny. Muslims in London will out-jihadi the average Muslim in Cairo. I’ve read numerous quotes from mujahideen which contend London to be far more friendly to their cause than many cities in the Middle East. Of course they will claim horrible oppression as well when it suits their needs. But it’s not as though the UK has put any restrictions on the spread of Islam, which theologically speaking is what would be cause for war. But again, claiming such restrictions is par for the course in the delusional and deceitful Muslim world.

He’s from London, probably south, and is of afro-caribbean origin, not middle eastern. If GCHQ can’t tell that simply from listening to the video, then what are they doing down there all day? Monitoring Robert Spencer’s cell phone, maybe?

My thoughts exactly, doesn’t sound like an Asian. Could be an East London Somali or Kenyan. Well spoken, minds his ps and qs, will have some good education. Points to a middle class family, probably end up being a son of a diplomat or something.

This incident is a verbatim illustration of what I call “The Islamic Meme” – it goes like this:

Muhammad’s slaughter of Kinana, followed by the rape of Kinana’s widow, established history’s most successful, most viral meme – if there are two guys with two different world views and who worship two different gods, and one of these guys is hog tied on the ground, while the other tortures him and then stands over him slowly sharpening the knife he will soon use to sadistically decapitate the tied man, after which he will take all the dead man’s goods and rape his widow and daughters, whose god and whose worldview is validated by that??

That is the choice that Islam ultimately foists on its “voteries” as Churchill would say – either become the oppressed or an oppressor. The beheaded or the beheader…..

On the contrary, Jay Boo, they are the most religious of people and have the strongest faith. It’s all a matter of context. YOU think religion means the god of the Bible. Meanwhile, religion means many different things to many different peoples. HIndus pray to cows and monkeys and rats. Buhdists think they need to be “good” or they will be reincarnated as a worm in their “next life”. With Islam, they believe in no uncertain terms and without waver in Allah, derived from the bloody Babylonian moon god Ba’al (that stone statue in the movie The Exorcist). Or, in your terms, Satan.

You again with your foul mouth? I hope you get the mental health treatment you need. You’re a nutcase. In addition, I’ve never seen anyone more stupid than you. Here comes PJ the hate-filled ass with his abusive rants. You need help.

Will the Obama administration meet in the Situation Room and assemble a crack team of Muslim Brotherhood/NPR trained apology specialists along with special envoys Hillary Clinton and Jimmy Carter or will he just do nothing at all?

Thomas-h -“Don´t these” British” Muslims feel ANY shame for the behaviour and actions of their Muslim brothers.?” Why do we call these specimens ‘British’? They tick very few of the boxes because they invited themselves to the UK simply for the benefits of our economy and welfare & education systems etc., and without any regard whatsoever for our cultural identity or standards, which apparently they despise. For these people to use the term ‘British’ is essentially fraudulent.

The murderers , rapists and kidnappers of ISIS just might be so thoroughly deluded in their heinous violence and wickedness of their jihad they could actually think that they evil that they are committing as something “good.”
To such a warped and evil mindset as this the Bible reads “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil…” Isaiah 5:20. Furthermore, to the violent and deadly members of ISIS in their evil and madness, such heinous men are described in the Bible Which teaches “The hearts of men are full of evil and there is madness in their hearts while they live, and afterwards they join the dead. Ecclesiastes 9:3. [N.I.V.]

As for the members of ISIS who engage in all this murderous violence. The curse from the Bible might very well be upon them. For the Bible in Psalm 140:11. reads
“May disaster hunt down men of violence.” [N.I.V.]

“…appears to speak with a British accent…”, wow, that really narrows it down.

“…British nationals…”, oh, he’s a quote unquote “national”.

Robert is right, beheading and such things are designed to cause “fear” in others, it’s all about creating “fear” in people. If you see these images on other sites just look away, close your browser and go on about your daily business. Islam is all about brainwashing and islamists are all about propaganda. Kidnapping, fear, kidnapping, fear, repeat.

“We implore the kidnappers to spare the lives of the remaining hostages”, oh, we “implore” them.

More like IMPLODE them is what’s needed.

“We implore the kidnappers to spare the lives of the remaining hostages. Like Jim, they are innocents.”

Wow, “innocent” murderers, talk about Orwellian.

Islamic “moderates” are out in full-force to fight and stop Islamic militants. NOT!. Others have to do the work. Islam will not police itself, nor will it ever reform.

Robert is right, beheading and such things are designed to cause “fear” in others, it’s all about creating “fear” in people.

There is another important usefulness of this kind of ghoulish terror, and we have seen it a thousand times since 911, and it only seems to be a psycho-cultural phenomenon that is increasing, not diminishing (as it should) — namely, that it triggers in the PC MC West the reflexive spasm to defend the TMOE paradigm even more. The TMOE paradigm — that the problem is only a “Tiny Minority of Extremists” and not Islam, and not the hundreds of millions of Muslims around the world (most of them ostensibly not doing anything violent, therefore obliging us to assume the best, not the worst, about them, in order for us to avoid the thought crimes of bigotry, racism, and Islamophobia, and in order to spare us any threat to our ethical narcissism ).

This way of thinking goes way beyond the Elites; it infects untold millions of ordinary people throughout the West too, in various ways and to various degrees. Just how pervasive this PC MC reflex is may be gleaned, in important part, by noticing (really noticing, as opposed to what someone would like to think they are doing when optically receiving typography on their retinas) how many even in the Counter-Jihad, and among Jihad Watchers, evince its asymptotic effects in their impulsive need to defend generic Muslims in one way or another.

As opposed to the Muslim “citizens” of the UK who don’t ostensibly say or do anything overtly supportive of ISIS (whose ideology, of course, can be shown to be confluent and consanguineous with mainstream Islam, but, unfortunately, only in a way necessarily complex enough to allow, among the majority in the West, for variegated wiggle room out of that similarity); whom, as we know from many of our stalwart and vaunted Jihad Watchers (and their passive-aggressive supporters and/or enablers) ought to be given the benefit of the doubt, just as we would any other demographic.
